American impressionist composer Charles T. Griffes orchestrated the present piece, originally the first of his four Roman Sketches for piano, in 1919 for a ballet performance given in New York. The arrangement makes use of the full palette of orchestral color in a six-minute tone poem. The work has remained in the repertoire of orchestras to this day. The score presented here is a meticulously researched and newly engraved edition by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. The large conductor score and orchestra parts are now also available from Serenissima Music.
